The corner-cutting, ugly aesthetic of prestige TV in 2026 is hard to ignore at the best of times, but especially so when it’s in service of a story for which we already have an iconic and (mostly) visually sumptuous set of films.

Jamie Dimon will tie himself to an ICBM and launch it at Tehran

Well, I am not sure what my analysis here is worth, but here is my 7,500 word primal scream of a military historian's take on the War in Iran. My best summary: this war is dumb as hell. acoup.blog/2026/03/25/m...
